About Dr. Basma El Homasany

During my basic training, I was touched by the pain of many patients especially those with cancer. I turned to research, I was determined to dig deep into the root causes of inflammation and understand the molecular basis of diseases.

I realized that the future in medicine should be a more patient-centered approach, not only treating symptoms but also looking at the primary root causes. I completed the fellowship in antiaging, metabolic and nutritional medicine in 2012. It is a wellness approach pertinent to the prevention of diseases covering areas in functional and metabolic medicine. Metabolic and nutritional medicine is a preventive and personalized approach dealing with interactions among genetic, environmental, food, diet, toxins and lifestyle factors that can influence long-term health in the prevention of inflammation and age-related diseases.
